An Investigation on Zinc Biosorption with Agar Extraction Waste from Gracilaria tenuistipitata
This study determined the biosorption capacity of algal waste, obtained through agar extraction from Gracilaria tenuistipitata, a common red seaweed in the Philippines and potential biosorbent, on Zn2+ ions. Agar was extracted from the seaweed and characterized through Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR).

Genetic and morphological analyses of Gracilaria firma and G. changii (Gracilariaceae, Rhodophyta), the commercially important agarophytes in western Pacific [PDF]
Many studies classifying Gracilaria species for the exploitation of agarophytes and the development of the agar industry were conducted before the prevalence of molecular tools, resulting in the description of many species based solely on their ...

Short-and long-term exposure to heavy metals induced oxidative stress response in Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata [PDF]
Algal cells can be exposed to toxicants for a short term due to accidental discharges or, more commonly, for a long term. The present work aimed to assess the ability of Cd, Cr, Cu and Zn to induce accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the ...
